> > Currently at 225mg of effexorXR for about 2 weeks and feel extremely dizzy. Has anyone run into this side effect. How long does it take to go away.
I had similiar problems starting effexor, and then when I upped my dosage... I cant say its really dizziness like you are spinning, but It was dizziness in a way that made it very dificult to concentrate... i would define it best as 'totally spaced out'...
I take xanax for general anxiety and side effects (which now are minor)... my body adpated pretty quickly to the dosage increase, and in two weeks im sure i'll go up another 37.5 or so...
***but*** if you are having these side effects, dont just tuff it out, call your pdoc and see if he can give you something that might make things easier for you to adjust to the dosage... you shouldnt have to suffer if there is something that can be done.
